I am currently serving as the Executive Director of 441 Ministries Beechwood, Inc. The goal is to bring hope, healing, and holistic development to the Beechwood neighborhood!I recently served as the Executive Outreach Director at Northridge Church in Rochester, NY. My heart and passion is seeing mutual transformation, led by the local Church, across cultural, socio-economic, racial, and ethnic boundaries. We are all better when every voice, and particularly those of the marginalized, oppressed, and vulnerable, are lifted up and amplified.Before that, I was a graduate student in the field of biophysics. My research experience focused primarily on the use of molecular dynamics simulations to characterize and quantify biophysical processes, specifically those involving peptide-lipid interactions. I have experience with many simulation packages, including AMBER, NAMD, and GROMACS. Specialties: C++ programming, Perl and Python scripting, Molecular dynamics simulation via AMBER, NAMD, GROMACS, CHARMM, and Lightweight Object Oriented Structure analysis library (LOOS)
